📰 One of our favorite CPUs for gaming is down to a price that shouldn't be ignored

We loved the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D in our review. Not only does it provide impressive power for gaming, but it's also very efficient. We also liked the price. Even at its MSRP, we felt that it provided tons of value for someone looking to build a powerful gaming PC. So, as you can imagine, we were pretty excited to see this CPU on sale, coming in at one of its lowest prices to date.

📰 More ISA Differences Come To Light With The New AMD GFX1170 "RDNA 4m"

Earlier this month we spotted the addition of a new GFX1170 GPU target in the AMDGPU LLVM back-end. Making this GFX1170 target interesting is that its marked as an APU/SoC part with "RDNA 4m" while being part of the GFX11 series. The GFX11 series is for RDNA3, GFX115x is for RDNA 3.5, and GFX12 is RDNA4. More ISA changes have now been committed to the AMDGPU LLVM back-end that make a few more instruction differences better aligned with RDNA4...
